Have an f/8 day! That is to say, partly cloudy with dynamic lighting situations. Thank you for this community.

Dear Andy,

So very glad you are here 🙏🏻🙌🏻🎂

What a story. Photography, art, music, writing, are life-giving gifts. In 2003 at 43 I was done carrying bags for other photographers and a few years into creating my own passion and business. At any age we can thrive and dream. I had to remember that in these past few years. You set the bar for comebacks Andy! ox

Happy birthday! 🎂 I think photography lets us remember things that we would have forgotten otherwise - the small details that get lost when you just use your memory to go back in time. I’m grateful for that.

Cancer at 24. That is a harsh verdict. Very happy you recuperated and remained cancer free. So many people do not...So extra candles on that cake, Andy. Have a wonderful BD and rest from alll of us.

Wonderful and happy solar/earth rotation! I don’t think I knew you’d been diagnosed so young. What a frightening and exhausting time that must have been to survive but so very glad you are still kicking, Andy, and for your words, mind, insights and photography and your love of it. I hope the year unfolds filled with laughter, love and bits of unexpected magic, as always. And that the light continues to find you and vice versa. 🎂🎉✨🙌🏻👏🏻❤️
